We do not take a one-size-fits-all approach to drug addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder treatment. At our treatment center, we have the ability to accommodate a variety of needs. Our clients heal in a beautiful, peaceful county setting that’s conducive to recovery.

If you experience an unexpected loss, period of acute stress, or other challenging life event, you should expect to undergo a period of time during which you simply do not feel like yourself. You may feel anxious or depressed, may have trouble sleeping, and may lose interest in the things you used to enjoy doing. These symptoms are natural and normal responses to stress and should not be viewed with scrutiny when they occur in the context of difficult life experiences. But for some, these symptoms fail to resolve themselves, and they plague individuals in an ongoing manner. This experience could be the result of an adjustment disorder, a mental health condition that will require professional help to overcome. Thankfully, with the help of such professionals at an addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder treatment and rehab center, individuals can find recovery from these disorders.

At Bowling Green Brandywine, located in Kennett Square, PA, we provide residential treatment and rehab services for adult men and women who are suffering from chemical dependence and co-occurring mental health concerns, such as adjustment disorder. Our staff of dedicated addictions professionals at our treatment and rehab center is well versed in the interplay between substance abuse and psychiatric illness, and are committed to treating both with an utmost commitment to compassionate care. For men and women who seek solace from the grips of chemical dependence and co-occurring disorders, we provide individualized treatment and rehab planning that helps each person in our care carve a personal path to lifelong recovery.

How to Help a Loved One

Helping a loved one get treatment for adjustment disorder

When a loved one is suffering from a mental health concern such as an adjustment disorder, it is imperative that someone close to them act as a source of support. Because of the presence of depressive symptoms, the individual may be unable to seek out care on his or her own, and could therefore benefit from help in the process of finding treatment. In this role, you can help by researching adjustment disorder so that you can be more empathic towards your family member or loved one who is experiencing this struggle, and then begin exploring options for residential care at treatment and rehab centers that could be good a fit for this person.

While the person you care about may be resistant at first to the idea of residential treatment and rehab at a center for addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder, it is imperative that you maintain a non-judgmental, compassionate stance throughout your communication. It is important that he or she knows that you have his or her best interests at heart, and that you want nothing more than to see his or her health improve.

Throughout this time, be mindful of your own wellness, and take time to replenish your energy by doing activities that you enjoy, and that bring you peace. In this way, you will have the strength you need to support your family member or loved one throughout his or her recovery journey at his or her chosen treatment and rehab center.

Adjustment disorder falls under the category of mood disorders, but this issue sadly effects more than just this one aspect of a person’s state. Left untreated, symptoms of an adjustment disorder will become more difficult to manage, and may evolve into a more severe type of depressive disorder as time passes. Fortunately, these symptoms can be managed with the proper supports at a high-quality addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder treatment and rehab center, and one need not shoulder this burden alone. With comprehensive care that addresses both substance abuse and mental health concerns simultaneously, an individual can overcome dysfunctional patterns, and process any underlying issues that may be manifesting themselves in the present. With the help of the knowledgeable, caring staff at Bowling Green Brandywine, the men and women in our care can reclaim their mental and physical health, and set the course for sustained recovery.

Once complete, our staff will work in collaboration with new residents to determine which of the following treatment and rehab methods will be woven into their plan for treatment while at our center, all of which are based on person-centered, CBT, and psychoeducational approaches to care:

Medically monitored detoxification: When prospective residents come to us for treatment dependent upon substances, detox services may be incorporated into their treatment plans if it is deemed appropriate. Under the supervision of medical professionals, residents at our treatment and rehab center in Kennett Square will be given the care they need in order to go through the withdrawal process safely and with minimal discomfort. Detox occurs prior to engaging in our other programming options and is not a stand-alone service. While receiving detox services at our treatment and rehab center, residents will be able to partake in medication management services with our psychiatrist, individual therapy sessions, as-needed family therapy sessions, and experiential therapy sessions. Lastly, group therapy opportunities are available while residents go through detox and may include the following groups:

Medication management: Those battling a mental health condition, such as adjustment disorder, at the same time as an addiction to substances, will require certain psychotropic medications in order to alleviate the distressing symptoms they are experiencing. When this is the case, residents at our center for treatment and rehab are afforded the opportunity to meet with our esteemed psychiatrists once per week to have their medication needs addressed. Any medications prescribed are monitored by our staff and adjustments can be made during the course of treatment and rehab if it appears to be necessary to the resident’s overall treatment and wellbeing.

Individual therapy: Led by qualified counselors, individual therapy sessions take place once per week and allow residents to process their progress, setbacks, emotions, and other concerns with one-on-one attention while at our treatment and rehab center for addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder. Additional sessions can be added to a resident’s treatment plan if it is needed and are excellent forums for residents to establish a therapeutic relationship that can aid in the healing process.

Weekly family program: Occurring each Sunday, Bowling Green’s weekly family program is available to loved ones and family members of our residents in order to offer them support and education while the person they care about receives treatment and rehab with us. This program includes a one-hour psychoeducational presentation that is then followed by a family session led by one of our counselors from our treatment center. Additionally, Al Anon comes onsite during family sessions so as to provide loved ones and family members with additional support, information, and resources.

Additional family therapy: In addition to the family therapy sessions offered within the weekly family program, residents can request or a recommendation can be made for including additional family therapy sessions in a resident’s treatment plan while at our treatment and rehab center for addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder. These sessions are available on an as-needed basis and will provide our residents and their primary support systems with the attention they need to heal as a unit.

Group therapy: Held throughout the day, 7 days per week, group therapy is an important element of the treatment offered at Bowling Green Brandywine. Types of groups offered include process groups, 12-Step groups, gender groups, psychoeducational groups, community meetings, and daily wrap-up meetings. Some groups offered in the dual diagnosis program are held outside when the weather permits and may include the following:

Depending on the needs of the resident, some of these treatment methods will occur more or less frequently during the course of treatment. Furthermore, additional treatment options may be added if it is apparent that they will be beneficial to the resident’s care.

Continuing Care

Continuing care and discharge planning for adjustment disorder

Once our male residents complete our dual diagnosis residential treatment and rehab programming, they have the option of transitioning, or may be referred, to our partial hospitalization program. This innovative programming option is for men, aged 18 and older, and houses residents in Bowling Green’s offsite housing. The partial hospitalization program is to help residents continue the positive progress they have made while in treatment at our rehab center for addiction and co-occurring adjustment disorder and allows them to solidify the skills learned while in residential care.

For residents who have completed treatment and rehab with us at our center and are ready to return to their respective homes, we, at Bowling Green, work tirelessly to ensure that this transition is as smooth as possible. Our knowledgeable and helpful case managers work with residents to determine what services and resources will be needed upon leaving our center.
